[HTC Amaze 4G] Odysseus1962:
If you're S-off then you should be able to go back if you relock your bootloader. Once relocked you should be able to flash the stock image by placing the renamed ruu in the root of your external SD-card and executing fastboot from the bootloader.

My suggestion is to go to the HTC website and search for the latest image. When I downloaded mine the tool there asked for my imei then downloaded the correct image for my phone. I downloaded directly to the external SD-card in my phone to avoid potential checksum errors using my laptop.

I hope this helped

Ciao

it's because ARHD is a stock based rom by stock they mean one of their official systems they released so you cannot use CM AOSP sense 4 or any kinda rom..but ruu arhd energy should work fine....

whats from htc? :/
[HTC Amaze 4G] mdrv500:
So the guy got back to me and he was never able to get back to stock. The telus ICS zip does not install from bootloader period as far as we can tell. It seems to require stock telus gingerbread which can only be installed via executable from a pc. Problem is it checks the hboot version (at the very least, never got past this) and will see a newer hboot (from telus OTA ics update) and give an error. So it seems to get back to telus stock you have to S-OFF. Flash older hboot, maybe radio too, and who knows what else. Run gingerbread executable install. Hope it only checks hboot. And the update OTA to telus ICS. I just wanted to get back to stock radio and Rom as I was having problems with earpiece volume. I was pointed to a stock but rooted and deodexed telus ICS Rom which I plan on trying. I'm currently on t mobile stock debloated and its great but the earpiece volume isn't quite where it should be. Pretty close. As for wind guy I'm waiting for him to confirm that you can S-OFF from android revolution and then that may be a path you can take in order to flash radios, hboot, other carrier RUUs. Good luck.

To the wind guy as well. If you're sending your phone back to wind I'm pretty sure they will see that you've unlocked the bootloader at some point and that may mean you're warranty is void. Just an fyi. Not sure if unlocking voids your warranty with htc, carrier or both depending on what has gone wrong with the phone.

Also to the guy who suggested I go to the HTC sight I will check that out tomorrow thanks for the tip.
[HTC Amaze 4G] gripen40k:
Thanks everyone, since I am on a stock-like ROM I'll trying getting my phone s-off tonight. At that point it shouldn't be too difficult to get back to stock, as the radio FW was my only blocker.

I'll also check out the HTC website, see if there is anything for Wind directly from them.

[HTC Amaze 4G] Odysseus1962:
Sorry guys for steering you wrong about the HTC website on one of my previous posts. Unfortunately, my experience has been with the US HTC site going back to my old HD2. I personally went back there to see if I could download the image(s) for your devices and discovered only the US T-Mobile version. Then I went to the Canadian site and found it's set up differently. I could find links for the different Amaze versions that were sold there but I couldn't find links to the respective images like I could on the US site.

On the US site when you click to download the latest ICS image you get taken to a widget that asks for your IEMI (I guess it searches through a database to see if you're legit) then after a few moments the download proceeds as expected. I could find nothing similar after looking around the Canadian site. I'm going to try searching the Int'l site to see if I have better luck.
[HTC Amaze 4G] gripen40k:
Good news everyone!

I found some time this morning to mess with my phone. Because I was on the energy stock ROM I was able to successfully perform S-off and superCID my amaze. I'm now re-downloading the RUU file for wind stock and going to attempt to flash it again.

Hopefully everything works out. The ideal situation is that this will fix my totally broken camera but I highly doubt that as it appears to be a HW issue. Otherwise going back to stock I should be able to get my phone fixed via warranty (let's hope) and not have too much hassle over that.

Thanks for the help everyone.
[HTC Amaze 4G] gripen40k:
Hmm, didn't seem to get anywhere...

I am now S-off (says so in the bootloader), superCID (set to 11111111), and relocked to flash a factory RUU. Unfortunately I'm stuck, my phone displays this warning:

sending 'zip' (20542 KB)...
OKAY [ 3.154s]
writing 'zip'...
(bootloader) zip header checking...
(bootloader) zip info parsing...
FAILED (remote: 24 parsing android-info fail)
finished. total time: 4.011s

I've only tried the wind RUU at this point, I guess I can try a T-mobile one and see if it gives me the same issue.

I`m using the 1.93.0002 HBOOT.

Also I moved the RUU to the ext_sd and renamed to PH85IMG.zip, the bootloader will parse the file but it won`t ask to install it. It just goes back to the main bootloader screen. Not sure what`s up with that, but I`m guessing it`s getting the same error as when I flash using the all-in-one-toolkit...

EDIT:

Ok, ignore that, got it working!

For wind there is NO RUU zip file, there are only RUU exe files and OTA (over the air) update zip files. I was trying to flash a OTA because some other people on this forum said it was possible :P I think T-mobile is the only carrier that has an actual RUU zip file you can use.

Eventually I took a fairly round-about way to flash the software, but I think all you have to do is:

Make sure you are S-off and superCID.

Run the RUU exe file

Use the 'About Phone>Software Updates' settings menu to get the OTA updates from Wind

Some things to note:

There is only one way to use the OTA zip files: read here

When in superCID you can't unlock your phone again, since you will get a signature check error or something like that. You must load your carrier's CID before unlocking again.

S-off makes everything so much easier!

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Jimieo:
Curious to see what others with the Sprint SIII have encountered with this app. I love my sms/hangouts in one that I am excited about.. But I'm having some weird issues that were not present prior to the app's installation..

I'll be on WiFi and sending a photo MMS will send.. Other times it will NOT send even though WiFi is on and functioning. Instead, I have to enable mobile data. Things get weird here. The 3g/1x icon will show while the WiFi icon is showing in my status bar. WAT?

This seems to be the only issue that I've found so far. My only real gripe with it is that it does not support long SMS (yet).

What are all your thoughts on it and have you encountered the same or different problems?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] chut1144:
So far I've loved hangouts. I do notice that on wifi, there's a slight lag when converting to mms and then changing to 4g, but I never lose connection.

Maybe try disabling SMS and then reactivating?

Hello

I have a UK G2 D802. Purchased Sim free but put a UK T-Mob sim card in it.

It works great.

I would like some advice on how a complete novice like me can root the device, simply and easily.

My worry is that I will brick the device. However in my favour is the fact I can follow instructions and understand what I am doing.

Can anyone suggest a simple guide and simple to use software?

Thanks.

[LG Thrill 4G] scuzzo500:
I have a LG Thrill that is stock ICS. If I boot the phone and check all the buttons the buttons work, however when I try to boot into recovery the phone just boots or turns off. I hold the 3d and volume down button then push the power button until a vibration and lg logo then release the power button. I've tried to go thru adb to reboot into recovery but I cannot see the device in adb.
[LG Thrill 4G] JunDavis:
Have you actually installed cwm recovery?
[LG Thrill 4G] scuzzo500:
No, I'd love to be able to install CMW or TWRP but the guides I have found all say that I need to be able to boot into recovery.
[LG Thrill 4G] drastic00:
You can install CWM (or TWRP) by flashing it with Fastboot, but you will need to place a recovery image file named "cwm.img" in the CWM folder in the Fastboot pack. Some available packs (check the Optimus 3D dev section, same device, Euro flavor) have the image files already included, I think.

The method I have mostly used is to flash xbsall's rooted ICS with recovery.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2195753

His rooted ICS uses a type of recovery that is in system partition (not recovery partition). So if you want that, or you do not want to flash your device, use Fastboot (or one of the customized variants)
[LG Thrill 4G] scuzzo500:
First, thanks for the help. I now have superuser available and couldn't be happier. The reason I decided to do this was that I couldn't get the wifi to switch on and even with the super user access it won't. Should I assume that this is a problem with the phone or is this something that would work if I were to roll back to gingerbread?
[LG Thrill 4G] JunDavis:
It's most likely a problem with the ROM/kernel you're using. I'd switch to another.
[LG Thrill 4G] scuzzo500:
I can't say thanks enough for holding my hand so far. Is there a good guide that you would recommend for me to look at. Some of the ones I've viewed here have different information for each of them. Is the reason that thus phone is so different from what I'm used to due to the omap processor?
[LG Thrill 4G] drastic00:
I had the wifi problem a while back; it was due to me installing a custom ROM without doing required wipes in recovery before installing it. Not sure how you got to ICS, but if you follow the guide I linked above it should solve your problem. You don't have to install the custom ROM if you don't want. Just stop after installing rooted ICS. Be advised that driver install for pc is fiddly, hence the detailed install instructions.
[LG Thrill 4G] scuzzo500:
Can anyonne throw me a line here. When I install the omap drivers for the phone (step f4.1-4.5) the phone still keeps disappearing from the device drivers. Even disconnecting and reconnecting with the volume up button pressed isn't helping. Any ideas? I've tried uninstalling all of the drivers, using system restore to roll back, different cables. It used to work, now it doesn't any ideas?
[LG Thrill 4G] drastic00:
If you mean the way it keeps blinking on and off, be ready with the mouse. Watch for when it appears and quickly right click on it, you kind of have to catch it. Then point it to the driver in the Fastboot folder (not the one in the omap4flash installer folder) as described. Once that is done you unplug phone, then replug, volume up, and let the two LG drivers install. All LG stuff on pc should be uninstalled and pc rebooted before beginning with all this. Also, some antivirus software can mistake the driver as being malicious and delete it when unraring the Fastboot folder, without it notifying you. And if you have a custom bootloader on your phone you may need to skip running omap4flash installer; they seem to not agree somehow.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] IneffablePigeon:
I'm having strange problems with my nexus 5 where occasionally the touch screen will completely stop responding to input. The phone hasn't frozen -- I can still interact using the volume/lock buttons, but the touch inputs aren't picked up.

The issue just goes away after a while (it lasts between a few seconds and a few minutes usually). Rebooting the phone doesn't usually help, and I suspect that it's just fixing itself when I reboot it and it does help.

Is there any chance of this being a software issue, or should I just send it back as a hardware issue? I'm going to try a factory reset tonight to see if that does anything but otherwise I'm pretty stumped..

Thats why you are supposed to SET IT!

So once again....

Go to HKEY_LOCAL_MASCHINE\ControlPanel\GPS Settings

1. Remove the REDIRECT

2. Add DWORD Hide and set Value to 0

3. Add DWORD Group and set Value to 2

4. Soft-Reset*

5. There ya go!

Its not that hard - just follow the directions and you will succeed!

*Be sure to do a correct Softreset! Either use a tool like Pocketplus to do a softreset or turn off the ppc by pushing the powerbutton very long untill you are asked if you really want to turn off the device.

That way the changes made to the registry are really saved to the ROM !

You have to wait a while before register changes would be in the ROM, dont soft-reset immediately, or you could just turn your device off with the power button (hold it for 5 secs.) and turn it on again.

This thread is over three years old, so you might not get many responses. To answer your question, I use Program port 0 and Hardware port 6 in External GPS. The latteer port must match the port you assigned in the bluetooth settings. Make sure you disable the check mark that sets up a secure connection. This is also found in the bluetooth settings.
